(3/13) Sierra Club ICO says the next weekend for a trip is in May.
(3/6) We're looking at a 4/17 camping date (Friday) and 4/18 visit to Sheldon Lake Park. Sheldon Lake SP has an Environmental Learning Center we can visit.
(12/3) Angie can't do 2/7. Possible dates are now 1/17 (MLK weekend) or 3/7. We are choosing 3/7, so plan on that date.
(10/28) Sent Jim Dambeck and Angie the following possible dates for a trip: 11/22, 12/6, 1/17, 2/7, 2/21, 3/7. Jim/Angie said he/she will be in touch...
(10/21) Received reply from ICO; they'd like to do a camping trip and are asking about dates. Richard/Angelica - we need to survey the class and find some dates.
(10/19) Sent email to Jim (?) at Sierra Club's Inner City Outings (ICO) group. They are already doing a lot with Chinquapin students, and we don't know if they would be willing to do another outing with the 9th grade.
(10/3) Brian contact Sierra Club, see if they can host an outing and when.
(3/6/09) Asking SWU for visit 3/25. 3/24 and 3/26 are backup.
(1/9/09) Plan on visit after Spring Break.
(11/14) Visit votes follow each college:
Small college candidates: Southwestern-16, UTSA-15, St. Edwards-15, St. Mary's-7, St. Thomas-4, SFA-4
Large college candidates: A&M-18, LSU-3 (out-of-state tuition $$), Rice (11th grade visits), UT-Austin (10th grade visits)
Class voted 16-6 to visit small college this year. We need to check out these schools' websites.
